Fougueux

Fougueux was a 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy that was launched in 1785 and sunk in 1805. The ship took part in the failed 1796 expedition to Ireland before fighting at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, and the ship's captain Louis Alexis Baudoin was killed during the battle. Nearly all of the officers were dead or wounded and most of the guns were out of action, leading to commander Francois Bazin surrendering the ship to the British Royal Navy. The ship was wrecked during a storm, leaving only 25 survivors.
